Tell all your mid-north-western-europe-located friends!
When someone says „Scientists do not want you to know“ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They can’t shut up about what they found out and want you to know.
I’ve somehow trained my instagram algorithm to primarily suggest videos of
1. Alexander Skarsgård being a weird little guy
2. Matthew Lillard being a charming sweetheart
3. cats being chaotic gremlins
This is the dream.
I can know A Thing is horrific and hate it and be 100% against it without seeing nightmare images. Just stop.
Please don't post photos of dead children, or videos of dead children, or yell DONT LOOK AWAY. You are sick. Log off. Touch grass. You have PTSD and are inflicting it on us all. If you are not in media/ a conflict researcher/ etc you do NOT need to consume Horrors. Blocking lots right now.
this is fucking beautiful y'all
that's over $10k for emergency cash support for BIPOC trans folks in Portland plus a combined $15k+ to keep ICE-impacted Twin Cities families fed and in their homes
sometimes the world is a really good place, actually
The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive
Pssst - did you see the news that if you donate to your public library this week, you'll get a free audiobook credit from us? 👀⏬
My party trick no one asked for is a dramatic recitation of Bob’s opening monologue: youtu.be/fuEJWmxWkKw
Saw the post making the rounds asking folks to reply with the first fandom they read fic for, on what platform, and at what age.
Now I’m thinking fondly of the ReBoot fan site I adored 25ish years ago, A Minor Glitch.
I mostly agree with this take, and there's another amusing aspect: the right-wing is not good at producing media the American public actually wants to consume. They're touching the same stove that burned Disney when they tried to fire Jimmy Kimmel. Nobody will pay for HBO just to watch Kid Rock.
Not a huge fan of using literacy/reading level as a gauge of how intelligent someone is. I work in a library bro. There’s adults that weren’t taught properly. Learning disabilities exist. Some kids don’t enjoy reading. None of this means they’re not smart.
the consolidation of major media institutions by the president’s oligarch friends is obviously bad, but i do wonder about the ultimate impact. it is clear that trump and his allies believe that you can buy up media and pull an orban or a putin. but…
Now that CNN and WBD are set to become state media in a sale to Paramount/Oracle/TikTok, it is especially important to support independent media.
Off the top of my head:

Add your favorites in the replies. Fuck state-backed media monopolies.
A photo of Norman, a grey tux kitty with a white mustache, leaning on a floral patterned pillow.
Norman wants you to know you’re stronger than the horrors.
Discord says its delaying the age verification rollout until the second half of the year
This comes after massive backlash
Unclench your jaw.
Drink some water or have a nice soothing cup of tea.
Listen to that audiobook you wanted to finish.
Curl up with your pet and tell them how much you love them as you give them cuddles.
Make it a habit to find ways to treat yourself kindly in spite of a world that refuses to.
I was also delighted to realize about halfway through the interview that I recognized the hat Jesse David Fox is wearing.

A+ State of the Union counterprogramming by TCM.
Sure was! The Bittersweet Symphony soundtrack detail nearly made me screamlaugh in the mechanic’s waiting room.
I have the unhinged holiday movie pitch @disastershipblonde.bsky.social and I yes-and’d saved and occasionally reread it for a giggle.
Good and useful tech doesn't have to force itself onto you. Good and useful tech doesn't have to beg to be used.
Two amazing authors and a great charity. It’s worth reading Charlie’s entire thread to hear about the incredible support for Black trans women.
